PreciWind - Precise measuring system for non-contact acquisition and analysis of the dynamic flow behaviour of wind turbine rotor blades
The boundary layer flow of aerodynamic profiles on wind turbine rotor blades is unsteady as the flow conditions such as the wind speed, the turbulence level and the angle of attack vary depending on the position of the rotor blade during one revolution of the... » more

ProstKuehl - Near-process flow measurements of the cooling lubricant supply in grinding processes
Grinding is an essential manufacturing process for the production of, e. g., metallic or optical components. A high process speed requires an efficient cooling in order to avoid grinding burn. However, flow mechanisms for an efficient cooling lubricant (cl)... » more

PROTA - Near-process characterization of temperature field and ablation changes during laser chemical machining
Compared to other micromachining processes, like micro milling, laser chemical machining (LCM) can achieve a higher removal quality with respect to shape accuracy at acute edge angles and small edge radii. However, the production speed of LCM is lower, in... » more

ThermoStall - Contactless in-process measurement of separated flow on non-scaled rotor blades of wind turbines
Because of the efficiency lowering effect, boundary layer flow separation is an unwanted phenomenon on rotor blades of wind turbines. The separated flow also induces unsteady loads, reducing the lifespan of the structural material and causing sound emission. To... » more
